Senators voted 53-45 to confirm Barron with the help of liberals who dropped their initial opposition to his nomination in anticipation of the memo's release. Sens. Mary Landrieu, D-La., and Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., were the sole Democrats opposing.
Barron co-authored a 2011 Justice Department memo that was used to justify the killing of four Americans suspected of terrorism overseas, including the dismissal of a lawsuit filed by the father of cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, who was targeted by a drone strike in Yemen in September of that year.
Earlier this year, a federal court said the CIA, Defense Department and Justice Department did not have to respond to a Freedom of Information Act request to release documents related to the killings, but the ruling was overturned by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in April.
Liberal and Conservative senators had promised to oppose Barron's nomination to the First Circuit Appeals Court unless the memoirs were made public, and last week, the White House allowed senators to view the memo in a secure room on Capitol Hill.
On Tuesday, the administration said it would not appeal the Second Circuit ruling, and would, in time, release redacted versions of the memo and listings of all classified documents related to the killings.
While it wasn't clear exactly when the memo will be made public, an official said it would likely be "a matter of weeks."

San Mateo Chapter Holds First Annual Show
H. W. Oliver, Menlo Park, CaliforniaThe first Annual Show of the San Mateo Chapter was held at Holbrook-Palmer Park, Atherton, California on May 6, 1972. Atherton is located about 28 miles south of San Francisco and Holbrook-Palmer is a choice setting with a back-drop of 2,000 rhododendrons contributed to the 22-acre park by the late Oliver Johnson.
About 500 trusses, sprays, and plants were entered in the show which was attended by a similar number of people. The following table lists the 15 entry classes and the names of the hybrids or species receiving ribbon awards:

In addition, seven perpetual trophies were awarded, the Sweepstakes trophy going to Hadley Osborn who was still recovering from directing the National Meetings in San Francisco April 26-30.
Judging was carried out in grand fashion by Maurice Sumner who grows no less than 5,000 of his own new hybrid seedlings on his hilltop in San Francisco; Mel Allen, a commercial grower near Santa Cruz, and Stewart Barber who must be the largest grower of deciduous azaleas in California. Nearly the whole chapter of about 70 members contributed to the show and are enthusiastically looking forward to increasing the number of trophy and ribbon awards next year. All ARS members are invited to enter.

DENTON A woman was killed and her husband and child were injured Saturday night when a small plane crashed northwest of Denton.
The single-engine Beechcraft went down north of the Denton Municipal Airport runway near Highway 380 just before 9:30 p.m.
The pilot made an emergency radio call saying he was losing oil pressure and needed to land, but he missed the runway and the plane crashed.
'I think he was in line with the runway at the airport before he crashed, because he's about 500 feet, 700 feet from the roadway,' said Denton police spokesman Officer Orlando Hinojosa.
The pilot's wife was killed in the impact. Her husband and a young child survived with non-life threatening injuries and were taken to a hospital for treatment. No names were released.
Investigators were returning to the crash scene on Sunday morning.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

It's 1975 And They're About To Explode.
A coming-of-age biopic about '70s teenage band the runaways. |
"The strength and beauty of The Runaways are that it tells the truth. Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
"The Runaways isn't just about rock 'n' roll; it IS rock 'n' roll, as loud, sexy, sometimes sloppy and ultimately exhilarating as the music can be. Steve Persall, St. Petersburg Times
Editor's Note
The story of the groundbreaking '70s female rock group the Runaways is recounted in this River Road Entertainment production focusing on the duo of guitarist/vocalist Joan Jett (portrayed by TWILIGHT's Kristen Stewart) and lead vocalist/keyboardist Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning) as they navigate a rocky road of touring and record label woes under the malevolent eye of abusive manager Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon) during their teen years. Acclaimed video artist Floria Sigismondi directs from her own script, with Scout Taylor-Compton co-starring as guitarist Lita Ford.

Published on: 7/20/2010 5:00 AM
It's 1975. Enter teen Joan Jett (a grunged-out Kristen Stewart), who wants nothing more than to rock, dude. As the movie dutifully informs us, she lurks in seedy L.A. bars begging to be discovered... and basically, she abruptly is, by producer Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon, perfectly cast), who gives her a shot, hooks her up with drummer Sandy West (Stella Maeve), and starts his Runaways rehearsing in an abandoned trailer out in the woods -- where mysteriously there is plenty of electricity for the amps....read the full review |

NASA's space shuttle Discovery will make its swan song flight Nov. 1 carrying two University of Colorado at Boulder-built biomedical payload devices, including one to help scientists better understand changes in the virulence of nasty bacteria in the low gravity of space as a way to help researchers prevent or control infectious diseases.
The experiments will be carried aboard Discovery in sets of specially designed fluid-processing cylinders known as GAPs, said Louis Stodieck, director of BioServe Space Technologies in the aerospace engineering sciences department. The bacteria experiment will target how microgravity affects the growth of bacteria, in this case Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, also known as MRSA.
The GAPs will ride inside BioServe's Commercial Generic Bioprocessing Apparatus, an automated, suitcase-sized device developed at CU-Boulder that has been launched on more than 20 NASA space shuttle missions, with two of the CGBA devices now on the International Space Station. BioServe is providing the hardware, integration and operations support for all Discovery GAP experiments.
Astronauts will control the individual GAP experiments using hand cranks to trigger and then later terminate cell growth via fluid mixing, said Stodieck. The samples will remain on the space station until the next shuttle mission slated to launch at the end of February, at which time they will be returned to Earth for further study.
The experiment is sponsored by Astrogenetix, Inc. headquartered in Austin, Tex., and designed by researchers at the Durham VA Medical Center in North Carolina. MRSA is a growing problem in hospitals and health clinics because of its ability to resist antibiotics in the penicillin class of drugs. "It can cause a variety of infections, some potentially fatal," said Stodieck.
"Because astronauts show decreases in their immune systems during spaceflight, we would like to know more about ho

Have you ever wondered what Xmas would be like if it were a Jewish Holiday?....
Please note: We hope that our readers understand that as a religious holiday, Christmas is totally incompatible with Judaism, and the very thought of it being a Jewish holiday is ludicrous. Therefore, we have avoided all references to the religious aspects of the holiday, and tried to focus only on those aspects which have pervaded American culture. Our intention has been to provide a good-natured, humorous parody, to use those cultural aspects of Christmas to illustrate some of the methodology and details of Jewish law. It is a very fine line we are treading, but we hope that we have insulted neither the Torah, nor our Christian friends. We'd love to hear your comments, complaints, and suggestions. © 1998 Akiva and Ilene Miller.

(version 2.1)
Letter of Approbation from the Kringler Rav
1 This contrasts sharply with Shabbos, for the mitzva of honoring Shabbos applies all week long. For example, if one finds a particularly good food during the week, one should save it for Shabbos even though it is now only Sunday and Shabbos is a week away. However, Xmas preparations may not begin too far in advance, in order to fulfill the dictum, "It's beginning to look a lot like Xmas."2. SOME HOLD THAT THE TREE SHOULD BE DECORATED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THANKSGIVING,6 BUT OTHERS PREFER TO DECORATE IT AS CLOSE TO XMAS AS POSSIBLE.7
6 For the mitzva of "adding to the yom tov" by beginning the Xmas season early.2. THE TREE
8 If the lady of the house already has a fur, then any evergreen may be used.2. THE TREE SHOULD BE CHOPPED DOWN SPECIFICALLY FOR USE AS A XMAS TREE; IF IT HAD BEEN CUT FOR LUMBER IT IS INVALID. IF THE TREE WAS CUT FOR GENERAL DECORATIVE PURPOSES, BUT NOT SPECIFICALLY AS A XMAS TREE, SOME AUTHORITIES ALLOW IT WHILE OTHERS ARE STRICT. A STOLEN TREE IS NOT VALID FOR THE MITZVAH.9 FORTUNATE IS ONE WHO IS ABLE TO CHOP HIS OWN TREE HIMSELF.10
9 One who cuts his own tree must make sure that he has permission from the landowner to do so. Ideally, cut only from one's own backyard. A tree taken from a reshus harabim, such as the county park (which is actually a carmelis, not a reshus harabim,) is considered as stolen and invalid.3. DURING THE SHMITTA YEAR, A JEW MAY NOT CUT THE TREE DOWN, BUT IT SHOULD BE DONE BY A GENTILE. HOWEVER, SINCE THE TREE IS INEDIBLE, THE PROBLEMS OF "KEDUSHAS SHVIIS" WHICH APPLY TO THE ESROG DO NOT APPLY TO THE XMAS TREE.
4. THE TREE MUST BE BRIGHT GREEN. BRIGHT RED, or a mixture of green and red, IS ALSO ACCEPTABLE FOR A XMAS TREE,11 BUT BROWN IS NOT. THERE MAY BE ONE BROWN SPOT NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE TREE,12 BUT IN THE TOP HALF OF THE TREE, EVEN ONE BROWN SPOT WILL INVALIDATE THE TREE. A TRULY PIOUS PERSON WILL MAKE SURE TO BRING ALONG A XMAS TREE EXPERT WHEN HE GOES TO LOOK FOR HIS TREE.13
11 Because such trees do not grow red naturally, many Sefaradim adorn the tree with red poinsettia flowers. Ashkenazim prefer poinsettas.5. THE REQUIRED HEIGHT OF THE TREE IS SUBJECT TO MANY RULES. AN INDOOR TREE MUST BE TALL ENOUGH SO THAT IT REACHES WITHIN 3 HANDBREADTHS OF THE CEILING.14 AN OUTDOOR TREE MUST BE AT LEAST 20 CUBITS TALL.
14 Where local fire codes prohibit the use of such large trees, a smaller tree - even a bonsai - may be used, provided it has toy people around it who will make it appear tall.6. THE LAW IS "ETZ ISH U'BEITO" - "ONE TREE FOR A MAN AND HIS HOME". THIS TEACHES THAT INDIVIDUALS MUST HAVE A XMAS TREE AT THEIR HOME, AND THAT THE MAIN FUNCTION OF THE TREE IS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE FAMILY, but public places are exempt. IF ONE WISHES TO PLACE HIS PERSONAL TREE IN A PUBLIC LOCATION HE MAY DO SO, BUT HE WILL NOT HAVE FULFILLED HIS OBLIGATION UNLESS IT IS TRULY SEEN BY THE PUBLIC. IN THIS CASE, "SEEN BY THE PUBLIC" MEANS THAT THE TREE IS LARGE ENOUGH THAT IT IS SHOWN ON THE LOCAL TV NEWS REPORTS.15
15 This is the origin of the custom of the great tree in Rockefeller Center, where a shaliach from Lubavitch lights the tree just before sunset on Erev Xmas, and is then returned to Crown Heights by an NYPD helicopter in time for the dinner meal.7. IN RECENT YEARS, THERE HAS BEEN A GREAT CONTROVERSY OVER THE USE OF MANUFACTURED TREES. IN THEORY, SOME HOLD THEY ARE INVALID,16 WHILE OTHER AUTHORITIES HOLD THEY ARE VALID.17 IN PRACTICE, HOWEVER, EVEN THE LENIENT OPINIONS HOLD THAT ARTIFICIAL TREES ARE TOO TACKY, AND THUS VIOLATE THE PRINCIPLE OF "HADAR". But if one has already met his obligation by displaying at least one kosher Xmas tree, he may have additional trees of any kind, natural or not.18
16 Based on the verse "Etz chayim hee" ("A tree is alive"), teaching that even if it looks like a tree, it still cannot be a tree unless it was alive at some point.8. ORIGINALLY, THE LAW WAS THAT THE TREE MUST BE DISPLAYED SO THAT IT WOULD BE VISIBLE TO PASSERS-BY OUTSIDE THE HOME. OVER THE CENTURIES, AS PERSECUTIONS INCREASED, THE PEOPLE INSIDE THE HOME BECAME THE MAIN AUDIENCE. EVEN SO, IT SHOULD BE DISPLAYED IN A PROMINENT AREA OF THE HOUSE, TO SHOW RESPECT FOR THIS MITZVAH. WHEN POSSIBLE, IT SHOULD PREFERABLY BE BY A WINDOW WHERE IT COULD BE VIEWED FROM THE STREET, TO CONTINUE THE ORIGINAL PRACTICE.
3. DECORATING THE TREE 1. AS WITH ALL MITZVOS, THE TREE SHOULD BE TASTEFULLY19 DECORATED. POPCORN TASTES EXCELLENT, AND SOME STRING POPCORN TOGETHER (WITH NEEDLE AND THREAD)20 TO MAKE LONG CHAINS WHICH ARE WRAPPED AROUND THE TREE. 2. THE MAIN DECORATION FOR THE TREE IS STRINGS21 OF COLORED22 LIGHTS. The circuitry of the lights is arranged with parallel23 wires, not in serial. A certified24 electrician should inspect each set of lights. 3. ADDITIONAL LIGHTS ARE SET UP AROUND THE OUTSIDE OF THE HOME,25 EACH ACCORDING TO HIS OWN ABILITY. THE MORE LIGHTS and other decorations26 ONE SETS UP, THE MORE PRAISEWORTHY HE IS. 4. THE LIGHTS MUST STAY LIT27 UNTIL28 MOST PEOPLE CAN BE PRESUMED TO BE IN BED29 OR ASLEEP. 5. TREE DECORATIONS ARE CONSIDERED "MUKTZA L'MITZVASA", "SET ASIDE FOR ITS MITZVAH", AND MAY NOT BE USED FOR ANY PERSONAL USE UNTIL AFTER XMAS IS OVER.30 FOR EXAMPLE, EDIBLE DECORATIONS MAY NOT BE EATEN UNTIL AFTER XMAS. SIMILARLY, SINCE THEY MAY NOT BE USED FOR PERSONAL USE, ANY DECORATIONS WHICH FALL FROM THE TREE ON SHABBOS OR ON YOM TOV MAY NOT BE REPLACED31 UNTIL AFTER SHABBOS OR YOM TOV. 6. IF THE LIGHTS WERE NOT32 PUT AWAY AFTER XMAS, THEN IN THE FOLLOWING YEAR EACH33 BULB MUST BE REMOVED34 FROM THE WIRING AND REATTACHED. 4. GIFTS 1. ONE IS OBLIGATED TO BUY PRESENTS, REGARDLESS OF HIS INCOME LEVEL, FOR EVERY PERSON THAT HE HAS EVER SPOKEN TO IN HIS ENTIRE LIFE and their immediate family members. ONE MAY GO INTO SERIOUS DEBT IN ORDER TO CARRY OUT THIS MITZVAH. PRESENTS MAY BE EXCHANGED AT ANY CONVENIENT TIME DURING DECEMBER UP UNTIL THE 25TH. 2. REGARDING A CHILD WHOSE BIRTHDAY OCCURS ON OR AROUND XMAS, SOME SAY TO GIVE HIM A DOUBLE PORTION OF GIFTS,35 AND OTHERS SAY TO GIVE HIM A SINGLE PORTION.36 SOME RESOLVE THIS BY GETTING HIM A NORMAL NUMBER OF GIFTS, BUT THEY WOULD BE DOUBLE IN SIZE OR VALUE.37 5. THE OFFICE PARTY 1. "WHEN DECEMBER ARRIVES, OFFICE PRODUCTIVITY DECREASES."38 BEGINNING AT 9:00 AM ON THE MONDAY PRIOR TO XMAS, ALL REAL OFFICE WORK STOPS.39 IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE ILLUSION OF DOING REAL WORK, EMPLOYEES BUSY THEMSELVES WITH TASKS SUCH AS THE COMPANY NEWSLETTER, OR PLANNING THE OFFICE "HOLIDAY PARTY". 2. IT IS A REQUIREMENT THAT ALL COMPANIES CONDUCT AN ANNUAL "HOLIDAY PARTY" EACH YEAR. THIS HAD BEEN CALLED A "XMAS PARTY" UNTIL 1972, WHEN THE SUPREME COURT RULED IT TO BE A DISCRIMINATORY NAME. THE TERM "HOLIDAY PARTY" WAS ENACTED SO THAT NATIVE AMERICANS, ASIANS, AND MUSLIMS40 WILL ALL FEEL EQUALLY UN-AMERICAN. 3. THE "HOLIDAY PARTY", IN ORDER TO BE DONE PROPERLY, REQUIRES A GREAT DEAL OF RITUAL DRINKING AND DEBAUCHERY. "AD'LOYADA" - ONE MUST DRINK AND CONTINUE DRINKING UP TO41 THE POINT HE CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIS FAT DUMPY WIFE AND HIS GORGEOUS 22 YEAR-OLD BLOND SECRETARY.42 4. ALL BANKS AND OFFICES MUST CLOSE AT NOON43 ON THE 24TH OF DECEMBER SO THAT EVERYONE MAY BE ABLE TO GET HOME IN TIME TO TAKE CARE OF THE LAST MINUTE PREPARATIONS. 6. THE FESTIVE MEAL 1. IN THE EVENING, AFTER THREE STARS APPEAR IN THE SKY, THE FAMILY GATHERS TOGETHER FOR THE EREV XMAS MEAL. THERE ARE VARIOUS OPINIONS AS TO WHAT IS TO BE EATEN AT THIS MEAL. ONLY FISH IS TO BE EATEN AT THE EREV XMAS MEAL.44 In our lands, the custom is to eat 12 fishes45 at this meal corresponding to the 12 days of Xmas. 2. ONCE THE MEAL IS COMPLETE, THE FAMILY GATHERS IN THE ROOM WITH THE TREE WHERE THEY SING ZEMIROS AND DRINK EGGNOG.46 AT MIDNIGHT THE FAMILY HEADS TO SHUL FOR TIKKUN CHATZOS. Some say that Tikkun Chatzos can be said as early as 8:00 PM,47 but it is good to be stringent on oneself. 7. SANTA CLAUS 1. FOR MANY YEARS, THE EXISTENCE OF SANTA CLAUS WAS A SUBJECT OF INTENSE DISPUTE IN THE ADULT COMMUNITY. IN 1897, A TEAM OF INVESTIGATIVE REPORTERS WAS COMMISSIONED BY ONE VIRGINIA O'HANLON TO RESOLVE THE QUESTION. THEIR FINDINGS CONCLUDED "YES, VIRGINIA, THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS."48 THIS WAS REAFFIRMED SEVERAL DECADES LATER IN A COURT CASE BROUGHT IN NEW YORK COUNTY SUPREME COURT.49 2. IT IS ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN TO LIGHT ANY KIND OF FIRE IN THE FIREPLACE ON THIS EVENING.50 THOSE WHO WANT TO ROAST CHESTNUTS ON AN OPEN FIRE SHOULD USE A BARBECUE. 3. TO DEMONSTRATE OUR FAITH51 IN SANTA, EACH YEAR WE LEAVE HIM A PLATE OF DONUTS OR COOKIES ON A TABLE NEAR THE TREE, WITH A GLASS OF MILK TO DRINK. SOON AFTER THIS PRACTICE BEGAN, CHILDREN BEGAN TO QUESTION WHY THE MILK WAS STILL ON THE TABLE THE FOLLOWING MORNING, SO THEIR PARENTS ADOPTED THE CUSTOM OF DRINKING THE MILK AFTER THE CHILDREN WENT TO BED. HOWEVER, JUST THREE YEARS AGO,52 WHILE DELIVERING HIS GIFTS, SANTA ACCIDENTALLY REVEALED TO A YOUNG GIRL THAT HE SUFFERED FROM LACTOSE INTOLERANCE, AND THAT THIS IS WHY THE MILK HAD BEEN LEFT UNDRUNK ALL THOSE YEARS. THE FOLLOWING YEAR, SHE LEFT HIM A GLASS OF PAREVE SOYBEAN "MILK", AND THIS PRACTICE HAS SPREAD FAR AND WIDE SINCE THEN. (IN COMMUNITIES WHICH ACCEPT THE USE OF GOVERNMENT SUPERVISED MILK IN LIEU OF RABBINIC CHOLOV YISROEL, LACTAID® MILK IS USED INSTEAD.) 8. OTHER CUSTOMS 1. ONE IS TO RISE EARLY ON THE MORNING OF THE 25TH IN ORDER TO OPEN THE PRESENTS. THERE IS A RITUAL MEAL WHICH MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE SUNSET. 2. MEAT AND WINE MUST BE SERVED AT THIS MEAL. LOTS ARE DRAWN TO CHOOSE A DESIGNATED DRIVER WHO MAY NOT HAVE ANY WINE. 3. THE MEAT MAY ONLY BE ROASTED. ONE MAY NOT EAT ANY BOILED OR BROILED MEAT AT THIS MEAL. 4. AFTER THE MEAL, MANY HAVE THE CUSTOM TO RETIRE TO THE FAMILY ROOM TO WATCH SPORTS ON T.V. 5. KIDDUSH IS NOT RECITED ON XMAS, BUT HOLLY IS REQUIRED. 9. HAVDALA 1. THERE ARE MANY OPINIONS REGARDING WHEN THE XMAS SEASON IS OVER.53 SOME HOLD THAT XMAS IS OVER WHEN THE LAST ITEM IN THE AFTER-XMAS SALE HAS BEEN SOLD. OTHERS ARE STRICT AND HOLD THAT XMAS IS OVER IMMEDIATELY AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE FOOTBALL GAME. The last opinion is the main one. 2. WALLED CITES CONTINUE XMAS UNTIL THE END OF THE WINNING TEAM'S TICKER-TAPE PARADE. A RECENT AUTHORITY, RABBI EDWARD, CELEBRATED XMAS IN AUGUST. For this he became known as "Crazy Eddie". HAGADA FOR XMAS This is the fruitcake of our affliction, which our ancestors baked 400 years ago. Some have the custom to place the gift-wrapped presents under the tree so that they will pique the curiosity of the children so that they will ask the Four essential questions: We were slaves to our employers, working seven days a week with no benefits, and then the Unions were organized, and decreed a five-day workweek and many holidays in the end of the year. Now if the Unions had not gotten their act together, then we, and our sons, and even our grandsons, would still have to work on Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Xmas, and New Years. But our daughters and granddaughters still await their salvation. (Pick up the eggnog and say:) But we do have a beautiful tree, and we have stockings hanging from the fireplace, and we got today off from work, and we got off on Erev Xmas as well, and we got presents, a delicious dinner, and dessert, and we watched the football game, and saw our team win, and so we will now toast our team, and pray that we do not get a hangover tomorrow morning: "Yay team!" Next year is Purim! Who knows one? Who knows two? Who knows three? Who knows twelve? ------------------- One little reindeer, one little reindeer, Then came a cat and ate the reindeer Then came a dog and bit the cat, Then came a stick and beat the dog, Then came a fire and burned the stick, ... Then He came and slew the angel of death,
APPENDIX The authors are proud to have been students of Yeshivat Ohr Somayach (Akiva in 1976-80) and Neve Yerushalayim (Ilene in 1979-80) in Jerusalem, Israel. Akiva has written and published some serious Torah on the Internet over the past few years, but it has not gotten the wide and speedy distribution enjoyed by "The Laws of Xmas." (The reason for this is simple: The Guinness Book of World Records used to list "lashon hara" under the heading "fastest known form of communication", but this changed in 1996 when "funny e-mails" moved into first place.) Akiva is a frequent contributor to the Mail-Jewish and Torah-Forum mailing lists. If you want to see samples of my writing, use any WWW search engine to look for my name, "Akiva Miller", or look for my e-mail addresses, "email@example.com" (which is no longer in use), or "firstname.lastname@example.com" and "email@example.com" (both of which I still use). I also wrote a translation and commentary to the Pesach Hagada which should still be available in the AOL Judaism Library (though it will not be easy to find there), or you can write to me, and I'll send the latest version in a few months. Most of the "Letter of Approbation" on the first page is taken from real Haskamos. Five footnotes are marked in the text there, and these are their sources: (1) Rav Yaakov Kaminetzky, Hilchos Chol Hamoed by Rabbi Dovid Zucker and Rabbi Moshe Francis; Halacha Publications (Lakewood). (2) Original for this work. (3) Rav Moshe Feinstein, The Laws Of Kashrus by Rabbi Binyomin Forst, Artscroll. (4) Rav Yaakov Kaminetzky, Wisdom of the Hebrew Alphabet by Rabbi Michael Munk, Artscroll. (5) Rav Mordechai Gifter, The Mishnah, Seder Moed Vol. 1a, Tractate Shabbos, Artscroll.
20 To remind us of the verse, "We're all connected." (Nynex)
22 The lights may be of 5 colors (corresponding to the knots in each tzitzit) or of 8 colors (corresponding to the 8 strings in each tzitzit). Where these combinations are unavailable, all the lights must be white. (Some use all white lights, with each eighth light being blue.)
23 Just as the eight strings of the tzitzis are tied in two parallel groups of four strings to help keep them kosher in the event a string breaks, similarly, arranging the lights in parallel will keep the other lights lit even if one light goes out.
24 By mutual consent, certification of Xmas lights is handled not by the OU but by the UL.
26 Those who have a front yard or lawn put all sorts of decorations up, whether lit by lights or not. Some say that if a snowman was built before Xmas, and by New Year's it still has not melted, it is a sign of blessing for the home for the coming year.

29 Watching Leno or Letterman.
31 Or even handled.
33 If is enough if this is done for the majority of bulbs.
34 The bulb does not need to be totally removed, but it is adequate if the bulb is so loose that the electricity will not flow to it to light it.
36 Which will surely cause him to feel cheated.
37 Another idea has been to celebrate "Xmas in August". See Rabbi Edward's opinion below, in section 9:2.
39 When that Monday is Erev Xmas itself, this work stoppage is moved up to the preceding Monday.
42 The example above presumes that he is a male, and his secretary is a female. However, if his secretary is male, and he has reached the point where he cannot tell the difference between his fat dumpy wife and his handsome 22 year-old blond male secretary, then he is forbidden to drink any more alcohol until Purim.
45 Even on Shabbos, one can easily reach 12 different kinds of gefilte fish: How can we show that four different fishes can make twelve different dishes? Because we ate four different fishes in Egypt, (whitefish, pike, carp, and whitefish-pike,) but we are now able to buy them three different ways. We can buy them ready-to-eat in jars, frozen in loaves, or ground raw at the fish store. Now, it follows that if there were four different species made three different ways, then there are 12 different gefilte fishes. How can we show that each of the twelve fishes is actually eight dishes? Because they can be made with or without salt, with or without sugar, and with or without matzo meal, and there are eight combinations of those three options. Thus, if there are twelve fishes that can be prepared eight ways, then there are a total of 96 dishes! How can we show that each of the twelve fishes is actually sixteen dishes? Because each of the eight recipes can be made either cooked or baked. Thus, if there are twelve fishes that can be prepared sixteen ways, then there are a total of 192 dishes!
47 So that the children will be awake.
49 Testimony from the United States Post Office proved to be crucial in deciding this case, as documented in Miracle on 34th Street, 1947.
52 The Santa Clause, by Tim Allen, produced by Walter Disney, 1994. This film also showed Santa's new fire-resistant suit which was developed just that year. Nevertheless, the principle is that a protective measure is not abandoned even if the reason no longer exists, and so the ban on lighting fireplace fires remains in full force.
All who are hungry, come and partake of this 400-year-old fruitcake, as it is written, "Let them eat cake!"
This year we watch football in the living room, next year may the Super Bowl come to our city!
- What does the wise one ask? I don't know; I couldn't understand him either. Him you must send to a school for gifted children.
- What does the bad one ask? He says, "What is this holiday to you?" Because he excludes himself from the community, you must exclude him from your table, and he will go back to his employer and get paid double-time and a half for working on Xmas day.
- What does the simple one ask? He simply asks, "What is this?" You will say to him, "This is dinner."
- As for the one who does not know to ask, you must go to his room, wake him up and say, "Next year, come to dinner on time!"
If we would have a beautiful tree, but not have stockings hanging from the fireplace, it would have been enough.
If we would have stockings hanging from the fireplace, but not get today off from work, it would have been enough.
If we would get today off from work, and not get off on Erev Xmas as well, it would have been enough.
If we would get off on Erev Xmas as well, but not get presents, it would have been enough.
If we would get presents, but not a delicious dinner, it would have been enough.
If we would have a delicious dinner and no dessert, it would have been enough.
If we would have dessert, but not watch the football game, it would have been enough.
If we would watch the football game, but not see our team win, it would have been enough.
If we would see our team win, and have a hangover the next morning, it would have been enough.

I haven't shot any other pellets yet, but so far, I am not too impressed with this pellet. The inconsistencies tend to match what other reviewers have said. I just don't get consistent results with this pellet.
Pros:Quantity and value.Cons:Inconsistent. |

What have you installed recently, ie about when the trouble started?
IE launching and opening of windows may become slow over time due to the presence of Add-ons like plug-ins and browser helper objects (BHO). You can see what you IE has installed by looking in IE at File>Tools>Manage Add..> It is best to remove or disable any add-ons you don't need
Another trick when opening a window in JavaScript is to open a window like:
var win = window.open('url', '', 'features');
win.name = 'winName';
instead of:
window.open('url', 'winName', 'features');
this will speed up window opening as IE does not look for any existing windows with the winName
check the plugins and addons, they delay browsers and your machine when it's connected to the net. also don't run several protection systems at once they usually take up your juice :)

And we still got extra of rhymes, still gangsta
Try to run up on the guy, that send your legs to your mom
And we still got kilos of Coke
Ruff Ryders to the death, ride or die nigga we know the oath
That's why I'm tryin' to send this metal through your head
'Cause you got me curious, you probably look better when your dead
Nine by the spine, 5th in the Holst
Scum bag it's them D-Block boys, Daddy kissin' the ghost
Comin' through like 'The Matrix' in the A-6
Triple black leather, six-speed, with the gray stick
Give me the safe, I spit at your face
Double clip in your mug, then have S P hit it wit mase
And we just caught Burners and do me, I'll say this
Your little niggas lookin' up to me like the walls in Green Haven

I toss bullets, New York niggas gel like Testaverde
I don't keep the scope on a ratchet
For the dope, I'm gonna catch it
Make sure the joint ain't point blank so they can't open your casket
My whole crew got glocks on 'em

Released: Feb 01st, 1998
Running Time: 83
Director: Eric Edwards
Company: Dreamland USA
Peter North, Tom Byron, John Decker, Nico Treasures, Steve Drake, Ruby (I), Nadia Moore, Alexandra Silk, Stacy Valentine
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
The only reason this video receives a rating of AAA 1/2 instead of AAAA is that the sex scenes are much too short. The storyline moves well; the sex, short as it may be, is incredibly hot, and almost all of the scenes are anal.
Knowing most of the actors personally and watching them in this movie made it more arousing for me, since I know the intensity is real. I have fucked Stacy Valentine several times on camera and watching her anal scene with Nico Treasures and Vince Vouyer caused such a reaction that I had to pull out my vibrator and masturbate.
The plot, such as it is, has photographer Tom Byron continually dreaming about a mystery girl (Nadia Moore) he has never photographed, but longs to place in front of his lens. Through a curious twist of fate, the mystery girl appears on his doorstep as a replacement for his secretary (Alexandra Silk), who has run off with a model (Peter North). This provides the motivation for six hot, nasty couplings.
The one scene that will always stand out in my mind is when Peter North is requested to get a hard-on for a Polaroid in the photographer's office. Without even so much as the wind blowing, North complies, his majestic tool rising to its full length while Silk watches, awestruck.
If you like your sex fast-paced, with plenty of close-up, hardcore anal action and lots of beautiful girls, then this is the tape you'll want to keep at your bedside for when you have the urge to get yourself off quickly. My copy is already safely snuggled in my nightstand drawer - right next to my favorite vibrator!

Digital assessment of endothelial function and ischemic heart disease in women. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 20394872 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
OBJECTIVES: We investigated the utility of digital reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry (RH-PAT) in predicting ischemic heart disease (IHD), including obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and nonobstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD), in women. BACKGROUND: IHD is the leading cause of mortality, and its pathogenesis is diverse in women. Fingertip RH-PAT is a new device that provides noninvasive, automatic, and quantitative evaluation of endothelial dysfunction. METHODS: RH-PAT was measured using Endo-PAT2000 (Itamar Medical, Caesarea, Israel) before cardiac catheterization in 140 stable women scheduled for hospitalization to examine chest pain. NOCAD was diagnosed by angiography with measurement of coronary blood flow and cardiac lactate production during intracoronary acetylcholine provocation test and cardiac scintigraphy with stress tests. RESULTS: Sixty-eight women (49%) had obstructive CAD and 42 women (30%) had NOCAD. RH-PAT indexes were significantly attenuated in both obstructive CAD and NOCAD as compared with non-IHD (n = 30) (obstructive CAD: median 1.57, interquartile range [IQR] 1.42 to 1.76; NOCAD: median 1.58, IQR 1.41 to 1.78; non-IHD: median 2.15, IQR 1.85 to 2.48, p < 0.001). By multivariate logistic regression analysis, only RH-PAT index was significantly associated with IHD, including obstructive CAD and NOCAD (odds ratio 0.51; 95% confidence interval: 0.38 to 0.68; p < 0.001). In receiver-operating characteristic analysis, RH-PAT index was a significant predictor of IHD (area under the curve 0.86; p < 0.001). Furthermore, only RH-PAT was useful for the prediction of NOCAD after excluding obstructive CAD (area under the curve 0.85; p < 0.001; RH-PAT index of <1.82 had 81% sensitivity and 80% specificity). CONCLUSIONS: RH-PAT indexes were significantly attenuated in women with IHD. Digital RH-PAT can predict patients with IHD, especially NOCAD before angiography. RH-PAT is potentially useful for identifying high-risk women for IHD. (Endothelial Dysfunction and Coronary Artery Spasm; NCT00619294). |

As the sun nudged its way over the eastern shoulder of the Holyoke Range this morning, Dice-K was struggling to find the plate. The early innings of an early morning were filled with uncertainty, but that was OK: after all, as I wrote back in 2004, baseball reminds us of the possibilities that exist.
I shot the video above on Nook Road in the Meadows section of Northampton this morning, listening to the game on my car radio. In 1901, the year the Boston Americans first played in the brand-new American League of Major League Baseball, the view at dawn here would've been almost the same: the remains of last season's corn stretching out like five-o'clock stubble; the ancient mountains blackening as they're backlit by the rising sun. Each spring, Opening Day gives baseball fans some sweeping sense of history and of the future. For the first time this year, we saw Opening Day paired with the opening of a day, which only amplified that sense of past and possibility.
Here in the Meadows, it's impossible to think about the start of the "season" only in terms of baseball. Instead, you think about the game all wrapped up in the growing season, in the season of the ever-changing landscape, in the mountains changing from gray to green, the earth changing from gray to brown, in the people you'll meet and the people you'll lose, in those warm days when the corn is high and baseball stretches late into the long evenings.It's impossible not to imagine all of this, all racing toward the horizon of late October, when the sun will rise again over the cut corn and the cold, gray earth.

Why is Live not seeing my Live Packs anymore?
- Live Versions: 9
- Operating System: ALL
Only in the version of Live used to install a Live Pack, will the Pack be available in the Places section of the Browser. If for example you are alternating between the regular Live 9 and the Live 9 beta release, one of the two versions might fail to detect the recently installed content, even if both version point to the same Packs folder.
In order to address this, you can do as follows:
- Open Preferences and click on the Library tab
- Click the upper "Browse" button (Installation Folder for Packs)
- Point Live to any other directory on your hard disk
- When asked if you wish to move over the currently installed content, click "No"
- Next, click "Browse" once more and point Live to the directory where the Packs are actually located
- Restart Live
Please note that, depending on how many Live Packs are installed, indexing the content might take a while. Live will still display the Packs in the respective seciton of the browser, but these will probably not show any content unless this has been fully indexed.
While Live is indexing the content, a spinning wheel will appear at the right of the "Places" label in the browser.

Horace Parlan: Wadin'
Buy Track
Horace Parlan (piano), Stanley Turrentine (tenor sax), Tommy Turrentine (trumpet),
George Tucker (bass), Al Harewood (drums)
.Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, N.J., July 14, 1960
Rating: 80/100 (learn more)
"Wadin'" resembles many of the instrumental blues performances on the Blue Note recordings of its day. Taken at a medium tempo, it features a simple riff-based melody that serves as a springboard for a series of earthy hard-bop solos by Parlan and the Turrentine brothers. Bassist George Tucker's booming tone is especially effective and Stanley Turrentine's gripping improvisation is, as usual, intensely soulful.

If the answer is no, then chances are you're not one of the tens of thousands of people who've hopped on the Bitcoin bandwagon.
The virtual currency is generated and shared via peer-to-peer computer networks. It can be used to buy lots of things -- food, clothing, music and porn. To get Bitcoins, a user downloads digital-wallet software and either transfers money from a bank or uses the computer to "mine" -- or create -- new coins (a process that can be quite lengthy).
The entrepreneurs behind Lamassu Bitcoin Ventures wanted to make it easier for people to pour real-world cash to obtain the digital money -- so they built an ATM. They say the machine accepts cash from more than 200 countries, converts it to Bitcoins and sends them to the user's account. The ATM isn't connected to any banks, which helps preserve anonymity.

VIDEO> Straight Outta Compton with Mad Mike
If for no other reason than getting a last minute "before they were famous" view of certain icons in West Coast gangsta rap, you should check out this video. In this second installment of interviews we did with the judges of the new SPEED Channel program Car Warriors, we meet the very down-to-earth Mad Mike, who most people might recognize from the television show Pimp My Ride.
If you were alive in the last six years and had any exposure to MTV, you probably think you know Mad Mike, but this interview introduces you to someone you've probably never met before – Mike Martin, a shade-tree, car stereo installer from Compton (in his own words). Whatever your preconceptions about Mike might be – leave them at the door. Nothing you see on TV is real… not even "Reality TV." (more…)

'Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains' - 'Going Down in Flames' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 23rd 2010 11:55AM
(S20E10) This season of 'Survivor' isn't going quite how I expected. Of course, that could be a good thing. Although I'm basically a force for good (yes, really), on my reality shows I have to admire evil strategies and schemes when they're executed well. In my own reality, I don't care for mean people. But when you consider the types of folks going on competition reality shows, the nice people can get downright boring to watch. The schemers other than Evil Russell are just getting started. Hang on, folks. We may be in for a wild ride!
'Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains' - ' Survivor History' Recap
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 16th 2010 12:02AM
(S20E09) Oh my. JT looks a bit disturbed in this image from tonight's 'Survivor,' doesn't he? Did he crack another tooth? Not to be posting spoilers in the first paragraph, but I don't think we'll see JT cracking teeth and being a one-man war machine this season. We've seen his whacked-out game strategy for the season already. He went from the nice guy, loved and admired by all, and winner of his original season to ... I don't know.
His own tribe doesn't trust him to the point of Amanda declaring him the "slimiest" person on the tribe last week. He's flipped, he's flopped. But tonight he has an epiphany and a brilliant idea. We'll see just how brilliant it is soon enough.
'Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains' - 'I'm Not a Good Villain'
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Apr 2nd 2010 12:23AM
(S20E07) Colby Donaldson survived last week's tribal council on 'Survivor' only because James hurt his knee beyond hope for healing within the game's timeframe. Surrounded by those who want him out due to his lackadaisical efforts in challenges this season and being on the minor alliance, it's time for Colby to get playing the game. Heck, it's time for the entire heroes tribe to start playing.
JT isn't Mr. "I Broke My Tooth, Yet Kept Fighting" this season. Rupert has some sort of enhanced caveman rush into things, but has a broken toe and isn't really athletic. No one seems to be good with puzzles. What is going on here? The villains have been trouncing them at every turn. It's not just Colby who needs to step his game up. But he's the one on the hot seat due to the alliances. Can he do it?
'Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains' - 'Banana Etiquette'
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Mar 25th 2010 12:42AM
(S20E06) I always hear the folks who don't watch 'Survivor' going on about how the castaways have it easy as far as real survival skills. Sure, being able to physically survive the elements and challenges is part of the show. But my own interest has always been more in the strategic angle. From the start with Richard Hatch, it's been shown time and time again that people manipulation skills can rule the game. Tonight was pure joy for me. It put me in my Happy Place. Why? Read on.
'Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains' - 'Tonight, We Make Our Move' Recap

(S20E04) No, no, no. Coach, you have it all wrong! It's not a conspiracy against you, trust me. It's you. I made a mistake last week when I commented how much less a wuss Coach was being this season on 'Survivor.' I spoke too soon. Tonight we (and Boston Rob and Tyson) had to witness his latest "I'm sensitive, the world is against me, woe is me" escapade. The man makes a mockery of himself, then goes all emotional when he gets mocked. He's a legend in his own mind, a special snowflake to the rest of us.
Review: Survivor Samoa - Two Brains Are Better Than One

(S19E13) Mark your calendars now, folks. The big three-hour finale night for Survivor is this Sunday, December 20, starting at 8 PM ET. The night will start off with the two-hour finale followed by the reunion hour. But we still have a few bodies to cast off the island before they face the jury. Will the original Foa Foa Four make it intact to the final four? Will Russell manage to sell his snake oil all the way to the jury and win the million?
Review: Survivor Samoa - Damage Control

(S19E12) Although I wouldn't have said it a month ago, this season of Survivor has been so interesting each week due to a certain snake oil salesman. Mind you, I don't like a lot of what Russell says, especially his misogynistic attitude towards women. But to give credit where credit is due -- he's a master of the game, and this season would have been boring without him. It's got to all catch up to him one day. His own people will turn on him if any of them are serious about wanting a chance at the million dollars. They have to. Could tonight be the night?
Review: Survivor Samoa - The First 27 Days

(S19E11) Oh my. Evil Russell from Survivor looks like some sort of deranged Buddha gone bad in this screen capture from tonight's episode. Tonight, like every Thanksgiving episode, was the clips show boasting previously unseen footage. It's not surprising that they do this each year. With the format of the show, they can't run a real repeat. And, if they were to air a new episode on the holiday, many folks would end up missing it. I'm usually disappointed with the footage shown, but tonight we did have a few surprises and interesting bits -- nothing earth-shattering, mind you.
Review: Survivor Samoa - The Day of Reckoning

(S19E10) Now, isn't this a good time to be a Survivor fan? Part of the problem with long-running reality shows is that they've run out of ideas and it's hard to keep things fresh and new. They end up depending on whatever outlandish and over-the-top characters they can line up for the season. Some are a dismal failure. Case in point, "Coach" Ben Wade last year. Sure, he was a nutty kind of guy. But he couldn't play the game well despite all of his bravado. This season is casting done right. And tonight's episode was just as good as last week's show.

(S19E09) If you haven't watched this episode of Survivor, stop right now. Watch it. Oh, don't go by the expression on John's face. That's the face I had when the show started. Yet now I'm downright perky and alert. For me, this started off being a real iffy season. But, as folks really play the game, I'm all excited about it all over again. Some play it poorly, but there are a few movers and shakers this season.

(S19E08) I know this photo might be considered sort of spoilerish for the front page. But since last week's Survivor promo showed the merge going down, I know you all know Evil Russell will attempt to work everyone. Heck, that's what the guy does. To me, he comes off akin to a snake oil salesman. Yet he seems to get people to believe his wily ways. I bet he could have sold a lot of snake oil a century back.

(S19E07) Even though we're down a Russell this week on Survivor, I'll continue to refer to the remaining Russell as "Evil Russell." It just somehow fits even without a confusion of Russells. However, there is just one Shambo. Although she's a good worker in camp and works hard on the challenges, that might be a good thing. One Shambo is quite enough. Perhaps she's just too nice to be on the show. Perhaps she is a bit dim. I just don't know.

(S19E06) Well, this was the most unusual episode of Survivor I've ever seen. Mind you, I've seen all of them since the first season. I won't get into why it was so unusual until after the jump just in case you've missed all of the hype over the injured castaway in commercials all this week. But it wasn't just the injury which made it unusual. It was all discombobulated.
Survivor Samoa: Hungry For a Win
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Oct 8th 2009 10:53PM
(S19E04) So far we've had one of those lopsided seasons on Survivor. We've seen this happen before -- one tribe keeps winning, the other keeps right on losing. The numbers on the latter are decimated going into the merge which allows the stronger tribe to keep picking them off one by one. I prefer things a bit more evenly matched. The tribal losses affect both the strong and weak players across the board. Once a tribe keeps losing every challenge, morale goes down. Then they lose some more.
Survivor Samoa: It's Called A Russell Seed
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Oct 2nd 2009 2:28AM
(S19E03) If I had my druthers and could choose which weirdo to watch take over Survivor between Evil Russell and Ben "Coach" Wade from last season, I'd surely go for Russell. Don't get me wrong. I don't like Russell. I wouldn't invite him over for dinner or send him a birthday card. But he's playing the game and, despite saying he's not there to work, he works around camp and at the challenges. However, his expertise in work at camp is playing mind games. Wade did diddly. Now if only I knew what a druthers was.
